Synapse is the junction between two neurons or a neuron and a muscle cell or a neuron and a glandular cell.When electric impluses from the axon reach the synaptic knob ,certain chemicals are secreted from there to the synaptic cleft .These chemical substances are called neurotransmitters.They stimulate the adjacent dendrite or cell and new electric impulses are generated.Synapse help to regulate the speed and the direction of impluses.
